I found two TV commercials/adverts on YouTube from the era of British Rail when they heavily plugged my favourite train of all time, the InterCity 125

My apologies in advance for Jimmy Savile being in these, lol (British Rail could have picked someone else, I know)



[youtube]http://youtube.com/watch?v=eUemTNZDRXo[/youtube]"room to stretch out and move about" is something you can't say about British trains these days, and the fares have since rocketed

This next one is how they advertised InterCity 125 to business passengers
